ReviewsWorld War II claimed over 55 million lives in the bloodiest military struggle in human history. Fought in multiple theaters across the globe World War II was a scourge brought about by a variety of factors that culminated in the rise of militaristic and/or Fascist governments in Germany, Japan, and Italy. The Pacific theater of operations, along with the Eastern Front in the then USSR, stand out as some of the more brutal stages of operations. In the Pacific, American soldiers, sailors, airmen, and Marines were faced with a highly motivated and often merciless opponent. The Japanese soldier was a well-trained individual who rarely surrendered. Mercy was a rare quality on either side during the Pacific War. Battles on isolated islands such as Tarawa, Guadalcanal, Okinawa, and Iwo Jima cost tens of thousands of lives. Similarly, naval battles fought near Midway, in the Philippine Sea, or at Pearl Harbor were both historic in nature and bloody in results. This violent chapter in American history is ably told by author R. Conrad Stein in this illustrated work. Utilizing the "MyReportLinks.com" series approach that combines a swift-paced narrative with illustrations drawn from specifically cited Internet locales, Stein has produced a valuable historical work. Readers will come away from this book with both a clear understanding of the events and the nature of the Pacific theater as well as many valuable resources for future consideration. This is a first rate book and one that younger readers with an interest in military history will enjoy., Children's Literature
